Nope. That's not working either.

Samantha, are you getting dates and names mixed up as i have found a birth for Texas Dixon but in 1965 so could not be son of george and mary as they would be in their 80's

plus mothers maiden name is Ledsham so possibly to do with your other thread

Roy

edit; Just seen Choccy's post, that would explain about Texas

Do you have the marriage cert ?

Would be useful to know his occupation which might give us a chance to find him on the 1911 census

Iam searching for any info about my great grandfather George Dixon all i know is that he was born in 1885 could possibly be 3rd oct but unsure, he married Mary Stockley and had my grandfather Texas Dixon i belive George could be scottish he emigrated to Canada but returned in the 1930's. If there is anyone out there that might have any info doesnt matter how small it would be great fully appreceated
